Careers
Help us build the connective tissue of modern work.
Most modern teams don't need more tools. They need better ways to stay in sync.
Surfboard gives teams a shared, always-updating layer of context: decisions made, background that matters, and what's happening next. We're not replacing your systems, we're working alongside them. Quietly filling in the gaps so teams can spend less time repeating themselves and more time moving forward.
We're building software that we'll use ourselves to run the company, automating the drudgery that dominates so much work today.
About us
We obsess about making things easier for people and are building software that we believe will be transformative in how they do their work.
We're building a tool for builders, for creators, for experts, for anyone who has felt held back by the systems they use and believes there has to be a better way.
We will use our product ourselves to run our company, automating the drudgery that dominates so much work today.
